Cancer, and especially breast cancer, is something our society is becoming more familiar with. Hopefully, in the future, that will change, but for now, having a cancer diagnosis or going through cancer treatment is certainly something that requires a lot of social support and mental support. I can’t even imagine how difficult it is.
To help people through that very, very difficult time, Chicken Soup for the Soul has released a book called “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Hope and Healing for your Breast Cancer Journey”. Featuring advice and stories for inspiration to help survive and thrive during and after your diagnosis and treatment, this easy-to-carry book can help provide inspiration when things aren’t looking so good.
“Inspiring Chicken Soup for the Soul stories and accessible leading-edge medical information from Dr. Julie Silver of Harvard Medical School. The stories in this book from women with breast cancer and their family members, along with the up-to-date medical information provided, will give you inspiration, strength and hope. This book will educate and comfort you and will serve as a support group from diagnosis through treatment to rehabilitation and recovery.”
To give as a gift or to keep for yourself, Chicken Soup for the Soul is providing a copy for one of you to win!

I want to share this – written by my daughter after 1 year of surgery and chemo for very aggressive breast cancer: (I put it on my blog http://chatwithvera.blogspot.com/2011/11/reflecting-on-blessings.html in November 2011) Perhaps it will encourage or bless someone here.
From one who has been through the valley of cancer:
I am grateful to have a day to reflect on my many blessings. Here are some of the things I was thankful for today:
The opportunity to experience the joy, pride, and even frustration of being the mother of teenage boys.
Healthy parents.
Siblings who jumped on planes to attend appointments with me.
Siblings who attended appointments with mom and dad when I couldn’t.
Siblings who sent care packages, cards, and texts.
A family that made sure I ate well.
A sister who hung out with me for twelve hours of surgery and chemo.
Siblings-in-law who spent hours on the phone and internet helping me find solutions.
Friends who wore “Vera shirts” on Fridays.
Answered prayers.
Strength and peace during a trying year.
Assurance: “To live is Christ; to die is gain.”
Laughter.
Hair.
One of my favorite quotes is, “Yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery; today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the Present.” I am so thankful each of you! I love you!
My thanks and appreciation for this survivor’s comments. They cause each of us to pause and reflect on how good God is to each of us.
thanks so much for your awesome blog!!
I love these books so much
